Well, here were are in March - let's get it started! How is your team doing?

Terps beat Duke last night!!!!!!! We are tied at 12-3 in the ACC (though Dook has a better overall record). Last game is at Virginia this weekend.

Whoop! Totally excited about the Terps comeback this season. I heard the police were out in riot gear to break up the crowds after the game last night.

Also rooting for Syracuse and Vandy. Looks like all three will be in the Tourny!

Despite our annoying as h*ll loss today, Syracuse should pretty much have a lock on the one seed. I'm pissed because they didn't really play for it today. But I'm not unhappy that they won't be #1 going in to the tournament. Give them a little anger.

That is what I heard, but I didn't see any. But I left by car and went right home - not out and about in College Park.

The game against Michigan was endlessly enjoyable. My friends were complaining about how boring it was. I guess you have to be an MSU fan to enjoy watching Michigan score 14 points in a half. I hope you have seen this.

HA. Yes, I have! And that game was all kinds of awesome

I loved how into the second half Raymar Morgan had more points than all of the Wolverines combined.

So now instead of heading in to NYC for the rest of the big east tournament, I'm hanging out in Syracuse. My tickets only exist if Syracuse is actually playing.

Oh that's such a bummer! Can't beleive they lost today. Georgetown's no slouch I guess, but still. Hope Onuaku is ok.

We hope he is too. Everything kind of hangs in the balance on that one. Part of the problem with Georgetown is that we've already beaten them twice this year. It really is hard to beat a team three times in one year, even a bad one. And Georgetown is now a bad team.

I'm glad that I have today off to hang out and watch games. This is going to be an exciting weekend. I can't believe that it is time for Selection Sunday already!

Terps @#&^%#! Grrrrrrr.

Beefcake · 03-17-2010, 12:02 AM

The Madness starts in 16 hours, give or take.

Just a few hours left to make some money ... vBet: Which teams will make the Final Four?

Beefcake · 03-17-2010, 12:02 AM

GO BUCKEYES!

And the Indiana schools ... er, all 'em but Indiana U itself:

Butler: Mid-Major Buttkickers

Notre Dame: Darkhorse, watch out

Purdue: Hobbled, Hummelless Would'abeen Final Four team. Sigh.

About that...

I'm so annoyed to be traveling today. Today and tomorrow are two of my favorite days of the year. And, of course, after the awesome games earlier today, my two hour layover is during the blowouts.

I'll feel better about it tomorrow when I'm in buffalo watching my #1 seed Orange!

vesperholly · 03-19-2010, 01:02 AM

Bahahaha I picked Old Dominion, Murray State AND Ohio! My first-ever bracket is kicking arse!!! Only mistake was picking Richmond over St. Mary's, and I had Richmond in the elite 8

Fridge_Break · 03-19-2010, 02:47 AM

My bracket has fallen to shambles. Oh well, there's always next year! (Used to hearing that... lifetime Cubs fan

)

mkats · 03-19-2010, 04:37 AM

OMG WAKE FOREST pulls it out in the last 6 seconds of OT!

BrokenAnkle · 03-19-2010, 04:13 PM

Go Gaels! Doubt they'll beat Villanova but still am thrilled!

Rob · 03-19-2010, 05:18 PM

This is the first year I didn't think the Big East was overrated so they featured prominently in my brackets, which are now busted. Oh well, yay for the underdogs who've pulled off the upsets.

No brackets for me -- I couldn't get up any motivation, with my team only making the NIT.

I will admit to being a little too

about the Big East upsets yesterday -- not very nice of me, but I didn't think that they should have gotten 8 teams in. At least Villanova kept them from being swept -- just barely. What an upset that would have been!

Back to watching updates online.
